Cowboys’ coaches Houck, Phillips took in Baylor Pro Day

The Dallas Cowboys had offensive-line coach Hudson Houck and his assistant, Wes Phillips, check out Danny Watkins during Baylor’s “Pro Day” last week.

Watkins started at left tackle for two years with Baylor but is likely to move to guard and center in the NFL. He had a middle-of-the-pack showing at last month’s combine, with his best performance in the bench press. Watkins tied for ninth with 29 repetitions of 225 pounds.

Watkins is older (26) than most draft candidates. Watkins is Canadian, and his hometown British Columbia Lions hold his draft rights for that league.
